Greater Vancouver Board of Trade reposted this
What a day. I am truly honoured to have received a King Charles III Coronation Medal. It meant even more to have shared this moment with my family. I have had the privilege of working with incredible people throughout my career, including my phenomenal team at the Greater Vancouver Board of Trade who inspire me everyday. Grateful to so many who have mentored and supported me, including the Honourable Janet Austin, Lieutenant Governor of B.C. This recognition is reflective of the work of my team and the many role models in my life who contribute so much to thier communities.

The Greater Vancouver Board of Trade welcomes the announcement by Labour Minister Steve Mackinnon that CN, CPKC, and the TCRC will enter binding arbitration, bringing an end to the national railway shutdown. This afternoon’s announcement from the federal government is welcome news. A prolonged work stoppage would have been disastrous for our national economy and our reputation as a trading partner. - Bridgitte Anderson, ICD.D Read the full statement here: https://bit.ly/4dyunXR
